Kayode Ogundamisi’s Boko Haram Documentary To Premiere Tomorrow

Social Commentator, Kayode Ogundamisi, is set to release his “hard-hitting” documentary Coping with Boko Haram.

The two-part documentary focuses on the Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria, especially after the hoopla of the Chibok kidnapping.

Part one which focuses on Maiduguri examines how the people are trying to survive and coping with the Boko Haram insurgency in the town. It looks at the contributions of volunteers from a variety of sectors including healthcare and education as well as NGO organizations that refuse to leave the supposedly dangerous areas.

It also shows the relic of the mosque which was founded by the late leader and Founder of Boko Haram, Mohammed Yusuf, where he used to live, at the railway compound.

The second part of the documentary focuses entirely on the Internally Displaced Persons; their new lives as refugees, their living conditions, their experiences of being displaced, their suffering and how they have overcome the challenges and how corruption remains an issue in the IDP camps.

As a director, I am a disciplinarian. I have no room for posers. If you want to pose, you go somewhere else. I am not interested in the star, I am interested in the artist. I am interested in the person who will do the job.
